Don Quai has been used for thousands of years by the Chinese as a superior women's tonic used nourish blood. Symptoms of PMS including, bloating, cramping, breast tenderness, and mood swings are all signs of stagnant liver "qi". Sometimes if severe youmay even notice lumps or nodules along your panty line groin area or under the arm pits following the liver meridian in the body. Left untreated you may develop fibroids....stagnant blood in the body.
Don Quai promotes and nourishes blood to get it moving so it won't stagnate. Many problems with women's menstruation begin due to lack of blood in the body called Xue xu, or blood deficiency. Symptoms include cramping, late menstrual cycle, very little menstrual flow or no menstrual cycle at all.
PMS is a symptom of blocked energy of the liver which is responsible for
the free flowing of blood and emotions in the body. A stagnant liver needs to be moved. Bitter herbs such as dandelion, foods such as asparagus, lemon juice and apple cider vinegar promote the circulation of liver "qi".
Eating fresh Dandelion leaves in a salad or preparing them in a brewed a tea, are very common herbal PMS remedies. The bitnerness in the dandelion leaves moves the "qi". A nutrient rich herb full of vitamin A, potassium and iron. Two cups of dandelion root or leaf tea a day helps to relieve many menstrual ailments such as bloating, water retention, swollen breasts, muscle spasms, acne, anemia and inflammation.
You may also try a home remedy for PMS by drinking lemon juice in water each morning before breakfast. The bitterness in lemon juice moves a stagnant liver. If you are a cold type person, or living in a cold country replace the lemon juice with apple cider vinegar a warmer version.
Cold type people usually have teethy tongues...check in the mirror you'll get what I'm talking about. Teeth marks on the side of th tongue indicate deficiency and cold. A good idea to tonify the body with warm foods, soups, meats, and tonify the Qi and blood with Don Quai.
